The UN as it currently functions is a disaster. But, just withdrawing from it, or helping it to collapse would leave a void.

The UN needs a 'new birth' --
the current staff must all be replaced - Annan must GO!!!!

The world needs a platform for discussion, but we are not ready for a world court, nor a world government.... That is the self-delusion that the UN has.... and that must be corrected....

The charter should be reviewed and the appropriate changes made....


I don't think we need the UN at all. The United States has been and still is the moral leaders of the world and can provide that platform for discussion and leadership.

Lets get rid of the UN by stopping funds to it. THEN, spend that money to "really" help people.

Instead of the food, drugs, troops..etc... showing up marked UN..it says USA..etc.

That's how we built good will before.

WE are paying for this..while the UN is crapping on our head. It's like paying to have someone hit you in the face. if we boil it down like this...all the worlds contributions to problems combined...would not equal what we do. And the people on the recieving end of that would know that.

No longer would they be able to eat our food, take our help..and condemn us at the same time. That's what the UN has brought to us.

Turn the UN building into a Ford/chevy dealership. Then use the money to deliver aid, food, drugs...etc..in a "timely" manner..to those who need it. And make DAMN sure it has a US flag on it when it gets there.

Then well see, just how much France, Germany, etc..contributes.

Then let those peple condemn France, Germany, etc..for not helping them....not us.
